- In 2026, the shadow was seen by Punxsutawney Phil, auguring six more weeks of winter.

Why it is Epic
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Groundhog Day article was read about 620,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 83 and blocks with 91: each hit it takes is cut by 36 %.
